Not seeing any troubles with 10.13.1 here, on iMac - MacBook - and Mac Mini. I did scan the High Sierra threads, sure there are lots of issues people see with it but nothing new there. Look at Sierra, El Capitan, Yosemite... etc forums. The only issues with over 50 replies on the first page (which is a rough indicator of a "Severe" or even "Common" problem) are: Slow to boot, shuts off if in Sleep too long, and a "Verifying" dialog when opening a file (e.g. a video). I'm certainly not seeing the last 2 issues myself, and if it's taking longer than Sierra did to boot it's not something I've noticed. The iMac gets rebooted daily, the Mini once a power failure, and the MacBook only when required by an update.
But as always, your mileage may vary. Have a complete backup before installing. If you tend to run every sort of 3rd party utility you can lay your hands on, count on one of them to cause problems. Don't upgrade if restoring would be a problem (in terms of having the backup to restore, or taking the time to do it). Basic stuff.
